libraries are not properly loaded in etc/SIVP.start

[Jasa Bartelj]

Hello.

This script etc/SIVP.start is seriously misconfigured.

It looks for libs in it's own subdirectory which doesn't even exist. There should either be symlinks there or the script should be patched. Also the hard-coded lib versions are too low.

Starting from line 80, these are the lines that make SIVP even load in Scilab:

    opencvlibs = "/usr/lib";

    if ARCH == "32" then
        link(opencvlibs+"/libgsm.so.1");
    end

    link(opencvlibs+"/libavutil.so.50");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libavcodec.so.52");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libavformat.so.52");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libcxcore.so.2.1");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libcv.so.2.1");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libcvaux.so.2.1");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libdc1394.so.22");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libswscale.so.0");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libhighgui.so.2.1");
    link(opencvlibs+"/libml.so.2.1");

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Adas Trojnar (trojnaradam)]

i've got same problem ;/

[Gergely Gombos (gombosg)]

Also. Ubuntu 11.10.
I had to manually edit etc/SIVP.start to match available /usr/lib libraries, and to make the search path /usr/lib. Now it works...

@gombosg: can you please give us the edited etc/SIVP.start?
